Summary:

Seven elementary schools are listed in ZIP code 08096. The supplied test results cover grades 3–5 at six schools; Green-Fields Elementary School serves grades 3–4, and Oakview Elementary School has no test scores in the supplied data. Results vary considerably across schools and grades rather than showing one consistent picture: grade 5 ELA scores range from 18% to 66%, a 48-point spread.

Good Intent Elementary School is the broadest recent standout: it led in grade 3 and grade 5 ELA, grade 3 math and grade 5 science, exceeding state results by 6, 14, 1 and 11 points, respectively. Green-Fields Elementary School led grade 4 ELA at 50% and math at 51%. West End Memorial Elementary School led grade 5 math at 52% and was second in grade 5 ELA at 57%. At the lower end, Evergreen Avenue Elementary School had the lowest result in five of seven schoolwide subject-and-grade comparisons, including 18% in grade 5 ELA. The gap between Evergreen and Good Intent in that grade was 48 points.

Recent changes are mixed, though the pooled school results edged closer to state results: average scores rose about 1 point from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while state results fell about 1 point. West End Memorial Elementary School and Good Intent Elementary School had average matched-score gains of 12 and 8 points, but large grade 5 jumps helped lift both averages. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranking for West End rose from 13 to 39 between 2023–24 and 2025–26; Good Intent rose from 52 to 57, while Walnut Street School fell from 34 to 24. All seven schools report free/reduced lunch eligible (FRL) figures for 2024–25: Good Intent was at 31% and West End at 71%, illustrating that the measure does not align neatly with results. Oakview has no supplied test scores, so test comparisons cover six schools only.
